   A much better way to store your sleeping bag is to keep it in one of those
large, cotton storage bags. Even better than this is to simply hang it from
the ceiling inside your house.
   I keep mine hanging from two hooks above my bed. I do the same for both of
my bags, and have never had a problem with loft, or any associated problems..
